....West London Audi have invited the A8OC to attend their A8 Launch Event on 20th May, and they would like us to provide 2 vehicles:
1 x Standard Pre-facelift A/S8
1 x Standard Facelift S8

Is anyone interested in attending? It'll have to be on a first come first served basis, as time is short.

You'll be required to take your car to West London Audi during the day, as their valeters will give your car a full valet to ensure it's upto the standard of cleanliness they require.

You'll then be able to attend the event in the evening, mixing with interested A8 parties (make sure you tell them about the club Happy)

If you're interested please drop me an e-mail at tony@a8oc.net

Tony,

Sorry can no longer do this. As I had heard nothing since we talked I have allowed myself to get railroaded into something else.

No worries Mike,

Unfortunately the details have been a little sketchy. From what was anticipated to be a need for a dozen cars, has now turned into 2 standard cars only. So even your slightly modified beastie wouldn't have been suitable Sad

Is anyone going to this event from near Hackney? If so could you let me know please. I am going so look forward to seeing some of you. But whats this, Saturday, I thought it was Thursday!? Saturday would suit me much better if it is.

i think saturday is when the car becomes available to the general public. thursday is the special event for guests via invatation and also the main launch. it is definatly thursday when the cars are required for there showroom display.

was going to come. booked time off work but i think the expence for me is a little too much. i would have to leave home about 4.30am to get there at a resonable time then leave my car with there cleaners. then return later in the evening for the launch of the new a8. that could go on till late. so i would have to find some accomodation for the night then return the following day. its all just a bit too much as they are doing the same launch at bradford audi

Leaving my car with their cleaner does worry me slightly. I don't want them putting their silly polishes/waxes on it. The paintwork is A+ right now Thank You very much!

Amar, I've just sent you through the details. Looks like it'll be a cracking event. Please don't post the details on here as I don't want everyone to turn up uninvited Surprised

Get some pics, and send them over, the story can form the basis for the next newsletter Happy

I will do a write up of the event soon, the dealership and Audi UK took some pictures which they will forward to me.

I really wish they let me clean it though as their cleaners did an awful job, paintwork has marring marks from cheapo polish and watermarks and all sorts on the windows. Never seen my car in that sort of state, Its going to take me a day to correct that crap Sad

But don't want to end on a downer it was a good event and the chairman of Audi Germany was there and told me the D4 S8 will have abouut 540 BHP!
